Re: I'm looking for some Zen instruction
@コチシカ
When I type in Zen instruction...nothing comes up. Perhaps the search function (at least for Zen) is finally working properly.

At the time of rebirth, I requested a wrinkle free one, but I guess I didn't have enough wholesome karma credit/merits in the account ...Oh well I guess you get what you pay for

Don't say that - she might invite 3 - 10 to come in, then we'd be overrun by a Shoshin-plague!!

Well apart from the "Just for fun" thread, I haven't been able to edit my posts...I can't remember if there's a stand down period before one (somebody new) can do this...
Welcome @Shoshin1 - nice to meet you.
I hope you find something useful here

Re: Just for fun: the random, useless announcements thread!
It’s funny how looking for things sometimes confronts you with how things are different from how you remember. I was searching for my wok in amongst all the stuff that is still packed from my last house move, and I vaguely remembered it being on top in a big box. Makes for easy searching I thought. In the end I found it in the bottom of a large box of pots and pans... on the second pass through, because on the first pass I just looked in the top of the most likely boxes.
